Sponsorship disclosure policy

Draft dated 2026-10-17. This is the product's core commitment; the wording will be finalized with counsel.

Our rules for every paid placement

1. Visible label. Each placement shows a clear label, such as “Sponsored”, that a reader would notice near the content.
2. Qualified links. Every compensated link carries rel="sponsored" (or nofollow) for the whole paid term. Publishers can't remove it, and we verify it after publication and keep checking.
3. Relevance and placement. No placements in navigation, footers or as editorial endorsements, and none on unrelated content.
4. Moderation. We refuse deceptive, unsafe or prohibited content, and require disclosure on everything we accept.
5. Remedy. If a label or attribute is removed during the paid term, we open a remediation process with the publisher and, if needed, refund according to the contract.

What we do not do

• We do not sell undisclosed paid links.
• We do not promise rankings, link equity, or “dofollow” links for paid placements.
• We do not manipulate Domain Rating or any third-party score, and we do not guarantee SEO results.
• We do not pay or reward anyone for editorial backlinks, and referral rewards never depend on a link or its attributes.

Third-party data

Metrics from third parties, such as Ahrefs Domain Rating, are labeled with their source and date. Traffic figures are estimates unless a publisher verifies its own analytics, which we show separately.

Laws and guidelines

Publishers and advertisers remain responsible for complying with advertising-disclosure laws in the places they operate, and with search engines' published guidelines. [REFERENCES AND JURISDICTION-SPECIFIC GUIDANCE TO BE ADDED BY COUNSEL.]
